Harlequin Quilt Pattern

I'm super excited to share my brand new venture with you today, I've been working on it for several months and it's been hard to keep it to myself.

I'm delighted to share my first pattern for purchase.

HARLEQUIN QUILT PATTERN

As well as all the info you need to make the Harlequin Quilt, the 8-page pattern includes tips and care/cleaning instructions for Dupioni silk and is for sale in my newly launched Craftsy Pattern Store for $10.00/£8.01 $5.00.

I designed the wall hanging at the request of my friend Susan Sato, owner of Easy Piecing

Of course, as a wall hanging, the pattern can be made using most fabric types: quilting weight cotton, home decor weight and more and it makes quite a statement simply pieced or used as a backdrop for further embroidery, handwork or embellishment.

Working with fabrics more suited to heat and washing than Dupioni silk, you could also use it as a table topper, instead of batting create your sandwich with The Warm Company's Insul-Bright metallised polyester 'batting' that reflects heat back to its source.

Busily making another fabric version of the Harlequin Quilt Pattern, I'm considering making this one into a padded notice board for my sewing studio. Have to see how I feel when the quilt top is made, I'm practically drooling over the fabrics so there's a still a chance I'll keep it as a wall hanging. Naturally, I'll share photos when it's done.

FREE TUTES

As promised in the pattern, I'm including free online tutes to help you complete the pattern.
